I believe the seasons will weather me,
proud and true.
I’ll blossom, wither and die,
like all the best people do.
When I do,
I’ll look to the light,
as I always have done,
and sing the same song
I have always sung.
I dream it will feel different
and all too familiar,
sweet as sugar
and fleeting as winter.
I’ll sing like all the best people do.
I don’t think I’ll think of you.
The fragrant air will have won,
and another flower will flirt with my sun.
